achilleslaststand76 Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 For those interested I have an old copy of a book called 'The Road to Rock'. It was published by Zigzag in 1974 - its a soft cover. It has interviews with Rod Stewart, Elton John, Jeff Beck, Peter Townsend, Pink Floyd, Family, and Jimmy Page. The Page interview is a ripper and was held just after LZ IV was released. Lots of tidbits about the Yardbirds and clears up a few myths about the origin of some songs like Tangerine. Don't know how rare it is but I love reading it. Cannot remember how I got it but I have had it over 20 years. All the interviews are great actually and take yo back to days when Rock as young and naive. Quote

When you say 'for those interested...' , are you meaning that you are looking to sell the book? If not, would you be willing to scan the relevant pages, and post them here? Quote
spidersandsnakes Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 My sister's mate used to have a copy of that:):) Quote
BlackDog71 Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 I would love to read that. The scanning idea is a good one. Quote
